Cased 1/6 PLATE 

Hand-Tinted TINTYPE of a UNION PRIVATE in Shell Jacket

This gutta percha cased portrait shows a studio, seated soldier with a painted camp scene backdrop. The inside, the hinges and the closing tab are fairly tight, and the case opens and closes as it should.

There is no ID for this person.

Black and white photo (hand-tinted subject and background).

Lovely Gutta Percha case has the same design on front and back.

Fine condition with light wear overall and a few tiny chips on edges and corners of the case.
